Farming is used to grow seeds into [[food]], herbs and logs. [[Aorpheats Signet Ring]], [[Weird Gloop]], and [[Generous Harvest Potion IV|Generous Harvest Potions]], can increase the amount of Herbs, Crops, and Logs received when harvested. Items which increase crop and herb yields, also increase the farming skill and [[mastery]] experience received. Raising farming to level 99 will unlock the [[Farming Skillcape]] for purchase from the [[Shop]]. Equipping the skillcape increases the harvest quantity from crops by 20% and allows the player to add [[compost]] to allotments, herbs, and trees for free. Equipping [[Bob's Rake]] provides a 20% chance that [[Compost]] or [[Weird Gloop]] is retained in a plot when harvested.

==Gaining Experience==
 
Farming Experience is gained through two actions: Planting seeds and harvesting crops that survive. Planting a seed will grant the player that seed's base experience value and harvesting will grant experience equal to the base experience value multiplied by the number of items harvested.
 
For example, {{ItemIcon|Potato Seeds}} have a base experience of 8, so if a player plants a plot with Potato Seeds and then harvests 5 {{ItemIcon|Potatoes}}, they will receive 48 total experience: 8 for planting and then 40 for harvesting.
 
Since experience is tied to the number of items harvested, anything that increases the number of items harvested will also increase the amount of experience received.
 
However, this only applies to herbs and allotments. Trees give a fixed amount of XP for harvesting regardless of how many logs are acquired.


==Mastery Unlocks==
==Mastery Unlocks==
Farming [[Mastery]] impacts many aspects of farming. 1 Mastery point is given for each allotment/herb/wood harvested. Increased mastery level increases the amount harvested from a plot. At 11 mastery, harvesting herbs and allotments has a chance to return seeds. At 50 mastery, crops, herbs and trees cannot die, and no longer require [[compost]].

Farming

Farming is a Skill used to grow seeds into food, herbs or logs.

Aorpheat's Signet Ring, Weird Gloop and Generous Harvest Potions can increase the number of Herbs, Crops, and Logs received when harvested. Items which increase crop and herb yields also increase the Farming skill and mastery experience received.

Raising Farming to level 99 will unlock the Farming Skillcape for purchase from the Shop. Equipping the skillcape increases the harvest quantity from crops by 20% and allows the player to add Compost to allotments, herbs, and trees for free.

Equipping Bob's Rake provides a 20% chance that Compost or Weird Gloop is retained in a plot when harvested.

Gaining Experience

Farming Experience is gained through two actions: Planting seeds and harvesting crops that survive. Planting a seed will grant the player that seed's base experience value and harvesting will grant experience equal to the base experience value multiplied by the number of items harvested.

For example, Potato Seeds have a base experience of 8, so if a player plants a plot with Potato Seeds and then harvests 5 Potatoes, they will receive 48 total experience: 8 for planting and then 40 for harvesting.

Since experience is tied to the number of items harvested, anything that increases the number of items harvested will also increase the amount of experience received.

However, this only applies to herbs and allotments. Trees give a fixed amount of XP for harvesting regardless of how many logs are acquired.

Mastery Pool Checkpoints

Pool % Pool XP Bonus
10% 1,950,000 xp +5% Farming Mastery XP
25% 4,875,000 xp Crops cannot die (Bonus applied when crop grows).
50% 9,750,000 xp +5% Crop harvest
95% 18,525,000 xp Reduced crop grow time by 10% (Bonus applied when crop is planted)
Total Mastery Pool XP 19,500,000

Crop Harvest Quantity

The harvest quantity, [math]\displaystyle{ Q_h }[/math], increases with the mastery level, [math]\displaystyle{ L_m }[/math], according to the formula: [math]\displaystyle{ Q_h = \left \lfloor 5 + 0.4L_m \right \rfloor }[/math] after bonuses are applied, the harvest is then multiplied by 3 for allotments and herbs, and 7 for trees

where: [math]\displaystyle{ \left \lfloor x \right \rfloor }[/math] is the floor function.

Mastery Level Harvest Amount herbs/allotments Harvest Amount trees
1 15 35
2 15 35
3 18 42
4 18 42
5 21 49
10 27 56
20 39 84
50 75 175
75 105 245
99 (before 20% boost) 132 308

Seed Return Chance

Starting at level 16 Mastery, there is a chance to get seeds back when harvesting herb and allotment plots. Higher levels of mastery increase the chance and quantity of seeds that are returned. The average number of seeds returned, [math]\displaystyle{ Q_s }[/math], varies with the mastery level, [math]\displaystyle{ L_m }[/math] as follows:

[math]\displaystyle{ Q_s = \frac{n}{x} \left (x-\frac{n+1}{2}\right) }[/math]
where:
[math]\displaystyle{ x = \frac{L_m}{15} }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ n = \left \lfloor x \right \rfloor }[/math]


This means that at 75 mastery two seeds are returned on average and herbs become self-sustainable. At 99 mastery [math]\displaystyle{ L_m }[/math] is replaced with 120, resulting in an average seed return of 3.5 seeds per harvest and making allotments self-sustainable.

Skillcape

The skillcape can be purchased from the store for Coins.svg 1,000,000 after the player reaches Farming Level 99.

Farming Plots

The player will originally only have access to a single allotment plot. Additional plots are unlocked by levelling up Farming and must be purchased with GP. Below are tables outlining the level requirements and costs for the plots:

Allotments

Herbs

Trees

Seeds

Seeds are required to start Farming and can be acquired from several sources, such as Thieving, Combat, or Woodcutting. Allotments require three seeds to plant, herbs require two, and trees require one. Seeds planted without fertiliser have a 50% chance to yield crops after growing, unless mastery level 50 has been reached. To increase the chance above 50% seeds must be fertilised using Compost. Each Compost used on a seed will increase its survival chance by 10%, raising the Compost Level to 5 will guarantee the crops survive.

As an alternative to compost players may use Weird Gloop. Only 1 Gloop is required to fill the compost bar and prevent crops from dying. In addition, it provides a bonus of 10% to harvest quantity.

Allotments

Herbs

Trees

Potion

The Generous Harvest Potion has a chance to double crops/herbs/logs harvested.


Generous Harvest Potion
Potion Tier Charges Effect
Generous Harvest Potion I I 10 +10% Chance to Double Farming Yield
